Is that C.R.E.A.M. ?

It is no surprise.
CCP knew they were gifting the null sec cartels another huge income stream with this.
Didn't you know that about 2 years ago CCP changed the title of the game to Null Sec Cartels Online?

Yes that's C.R.E.A.M.

Not all. RvB took quite a few around Jita also, including all of New Caldari.

However as one of the key members - along with Goonswarm - of the RvBee Customs Authority, we are offering a tax rate of 5% to neutrals, so you really should use RvB & Goon/C.R.E.A.M POCOs if you have PI business in that area.

Everyone else are merely imitators.

You seriously agreed to get in bed with goons?

Guess it was to be expected. There is huge money in this income stream.
Yeah, yet another lie by CCP and their null sec propagandists about how this was to be a conflict driver.

To the organized and motivated go the spoils. Don't expect any cheap POCO's playing lone wolf online. I noticed RVB got in on that action as well. I think blowing up hisec POCOs is a fantastic development.

I dunno about "a lie." Quite a lot of people sound VERY conflicted over this development.

It' a conflict driver for those with the balls to get up and take part in the conflict. For the more feeble and cowardly residents of highsec their participation will be limited to forum squealing.

Yeah, I saw that. I didn't read the whole thing before responding. :(

Back on topic, though:

How is this not a conflict driver, Angry Anti-Goon guy?

Goons have POCOs in high sec and you're upset about it, so we've successfully established motivation for conflict.

Now, whether or not you're going to sack up and escalate the conflict, or slink away with your tail between your legs, is another question entirely.

The asshat goon taunting is getting tiresome.
Yes, we all know that no one will oppose you.

My question is directed at RvB.
What did you gain by getting into bed with these things?

ISK and a good chance for pew pew?

Which sounds like a very sound plan for RvB.

Let's go off on a tangent here, for a moment. This is a video game. It's played by people, many of whom belong to various player organizations.

GSF is a large organization, populated by people, who are playing a video game. They do tend to play to win, but that's not uncommon in video games, and there's certainly nothing wrong with it. They're just people whose goals in a video game are at odds with yours.

Your attempts to dehumanize them and treat them as if they are, in fact, a great evil instead of just people playing a video game suggests that you need to step back and examine where the line between game and reality is drawn.

Once you realize that not everyone is afflicted with a basic inability to distinguish "evil" from "people playing video games", it's quite easy to see why RvB would be fine with this.

Why *wouldn't* they be? Since we've removed the irrational-bordering-on-insane moralistic reasoning from the equation, what's better for RvB?

Engaging in protracted and expensive POCO bashing battles against GSF? Or just saying, "Hey, let's just not shoot each other's POCOs, cool? Cool."

Income potential.
Conflict potential. (We've already received wardecs!)

Overall, both are good for us.

Also, whoa, deja vu!
